I am a bit of an amature photographer so I am always on the lookout for photo contests to enter. It is a fun way to become inspired to try new things with yor camera and a great way for your work to be enjoyed by others. Provided below is information about a photo contest being held by Ten Thousand Villages right here in Raleigh. The photo subject is “use of fair trade items in your home”. Entries are due by May 6th (see details below). Good Luck!
Enter the Fair Trade My Home Contest at Ten Thousand villages in Raleigh–submit a photo of how you have used fair trade items in your home. On World Fair Trade Day (May 8), store customers will vote for their favorite. Prizes will be awarded in two categories: Adults and Children (age 12 and under). The winner of the adult category will receive a lovely large etched terra cotta serving bowl, suitable for use at the dinner table or simply for display. The kids category winner will receive a gift basket of fair trade items.
